Do you think people sit and read the description with the server crashing all around them? There are quite a few people who simply order one because it saves them a page reload and greatly increases the chances of their order actually making it through. You’re correct that they mention buying three, and yes, logistically it makes the most sense, but that doesn’t mean that there are no reasons to simply buy one.
Completely agree, have done so myself a few times (because I was on a slow connection, etc.).
Now my question is: what’s up with people ordering TWO? Because that takes just as much time as ordering three. Maybe they hit “I wan two” accidentally? It baffles me.

Likely they hit I want 3… and then clicked in the same spot again which would then have been “I want 2”.
They had happy clicking fingers.

sorry for the delay in posting - it was nice to just get this in action before blabbing more.
So I’ve not received an update from our dev team on the mismatch IDs but I think I have a reasonable backup plan that I might as well get folks rolling on:
Our forum saves IP addresses posted from in database form (much easier than log searches). I’d like to recommend that those affected by failure on BOC4 who used a different IP address on BOC4 than they did on BOC3 attempt make some post at some time in this thread from the IP address they used on BOC4.
If you’ve already posted from that IP, there is no need to post again.
I’m afraid to reread that myself - sure to be confusing. Basically post on this forum from the net connection you attempted BOC4 on. That will establish a tie to your identity. If you are unable to post to the forum from that IP (say it was a temporary one) then we’re not going to be able to include you in the automated search. In this case, email the IP# used if you have it to service@woot.com and we’ll see if we can get the dev guys to manually look at your time stamp on the error page (and rank it).
If you don’t know the IP address you would have attempted from on BOC4 - quite a possibility if you don’t have a static one - I don’t know of a plan for you yet and I fear you may be out of luck. It’ll likely be impossible to validate those in this position, but complain here I guess.
Just making sure I post in, in the event it’s needed.

When I tried to get my first BOC, the “I want three” button wasn’t there - or wasn’t visible. But the two was - so in my frenzy, I clicked whatever I could. Likely the ‘three’ would have been there if I moused over the spot - but I was too frantic about time.
I’m aware. I click the link in the e-mail and it gives me the error in nice red letters. Hopefully it will be in their system by Monday. It was sent by crappost btw.

I’m still in the same boat, the error message is:
“Sorry, no parcels matched your tracking numbers. Please verify the entered tracking numbers and customer id are correct.”

You would think it would be a bag of crap, but in reality a memento of those awkward dorkie high school days.
nah, it’s some Senior Airman’s appreciation plaque from MacDill AFB, Fla.

This happened to me with my woot monkeys and the tracking info showed up a few days later

This is a new twist.
Random haiku crap:
ok it has been shipped. does everybody’s say 3lbs.
I will post pics when it is received. says it will be here on Tuesday
They all say some generic weight. Usually it’s 3 or 5.
This is a new twist.
I won’t make haiku’s. They are degrading and dumb. Now can we move on?
